Yeah, actual native assembly. I think doing a cross compilation for 2 architectures (x64 and aarch64) is more than doable, even 4, if you want to be thorough.

> The point of VMs like WASM is not (specifically) performance though
I feel like it is though. There was another thing, called asm.js back then, which was a subset of javascript that was easily translatable to machine code.
It was a giant hack, and performed worse than NaCl.
I feel like WASM is more of a spiritual successor of that thing.

And pass up the ease of distribution/compatibility browsers offer?
